In the hills of old North Carolina.

Since the time of the early 
   D
settlers there
A light has been seen on top of old 
      Bm
Brown Mountain
  D       A         D
A mystery noone can explain

D
High on a mountain.
    Bm                   D
And down in the valley below

It shines like the crown of an angel
    Bm                          A
And fades as the winds come and go.
D
Way over yonder
C                          D
And night afer night until dawn
That fathful Slave can back from his
 Bm
 grave
D                      C
Searching, Searching, Searching
D               A              D
for his master Who’s Long Gone On.

Where They Stopped On The Flats

For The Nights

They’d Watch For That Brown Mountain
 Light

And fades as the winds come and go.

D
Many Years Ago A Southern Planter
Bm                            
Came Hunting In This Wild World 
    D
Alone
  Bm                        D
And Then So They Say, The Hunter 
Lost His Way
  D        A               D
And Never Returned To His Home

D
His Trusty Old Slave Brought A 
Lantern
Bm                               
And Searched, But In Vain, Day And 
D
Night
  Bm                               
Now The Old Slave Is Gone, But His 
            D
Spirit Lingers On
  D                 A             
And The Old Lantern Still Casts 
  D
It’s Light

And fades as the winds come and go.

Way over yonder
